LPAs and Administrator completed the infection control domain together and there were a couple of issues that were found:
This facility is not following the infection control plan that was submitted in 2021. The facility does not have a complete visitor log that shall include screening for infection symptoms, staff wearing masks, daily screening of residents and staff for infection.
Also found during today's visit: garage is used as a sleeping area and a closet inside the facility is also used as a sleeping area and they do not have a fire clearance. This is a zero tolerance and results in $500.00 immediately civil penalties assessed. Licensee did remove the bed from the garage and bed in the closet during visit and stated she shall not use the areas for sleeping. The garage may be used as a break area, but cannot be used to as a permanent occupied space or as living space. |
